One of the advantages of a bike/river trip is the flexibility of the
daily itinerary. It can vary widely from one trip to the next based on
group desires, Mother Nature, and courtesy for other groups in the area.
This typical itinerary illustrates a bike trip through the La Sal Mountain
range outside of Moab and raft trip through Westwater Canyon on the Colorado
River.
Day 1
Meet group at headquarters in Green River,
Utah. A two-hour van ride to the Manti - La Sal National Forest marks
the start of the trip. The first day's ride will take the group along
old logging roads through forests consisting of huge ponderosa pine
trees and abundant mountain streams. The trail continues to wind northward
to altitudes upwards of 8000 feet. Camp on this evening is made at
or near Bull Draw.
Day 2
Our ride today requires each
and all to tighten their helmet straps and hold on! After a hot breakfast
the route begins a breathtaking descent from alpine forest to desert
floor. Along the way we'll take time out to appreciate the spectacular
overlooks that are abundant in this region. By the end of the day
we will have dropped 4,000 vertical feet to the desert floor.
Day 3
Put-in on the Colorado river at the Westwater
Ranger Station. Relaxing float to Little Hole Canyon's natural amphitheater
where shards of Indian pottery can be seen. In favorable conditions
a short hike up Little Dolores Canyon reveals a beautiful desert waterfall
and swimming hole. Camp near Little Dolores.
Day 4
Leisurely breakfast before rapids of Westwater.
Rapids, one right after another, Marble, Staircase, Hunter's, Funnel
Falls, and Surprise... lead to Skull Rapid, one of the Colorado's
fiercest drops. Finish with Bowling Alley, Sock-it-to-me and Last
Chance. Vans will return you to our Headquarters in Green River at
the end of the trip.
